What do you get when you combine a 3,000 hp, twin-turbo V10 engine with a sequential transmission, all-wheel drive and a drag strip? The world's quickest Lamborghini Huracan
Built by Underground Racing and owned by Kuwait racing team Drag965, this bright Huracan made headlines in May after reaching 250 mph in the half mile. Fast forward to August and it has broken its own record, sprinting down a U.S. runway at 256.99 mph (413 km/h). That's faster than the Bugatti Veyron's vmax and was achieved in less than 15 seconds.
What is particularly remarkable is that this Huracan remains street legal and retains all of its standard creature comforts, including air conditioning and satelitte navigation.
As fast as it is, it doesn't hold the accolade of the world's fastest street car. That title belongs to a 2006 Ford GT which earlier this year, hit a barely-believable 293.6 mph (472.7 km/h) in the half mile.
